The Citadel
Overview
The Citadel is the main area in Act 2 of Hollow Knight: Silksong and serves as the ultimate destination for pilgrims of Pharloom. This massive structure is divided into seven distinct sub-areas, each with unique challenges and secrets. Access to the Citadel is gained either from the Blasted Steps after defeating the Last Judge at Grand Gate, or from Bilewater after defeating Phantom in the Exhaust Organ.
